  • Highland Perthshire Through the Archive
    A Guide to the History and Culture of Highland Perthshire through the Archive Dick Fotheringham, bell ringer in the Aberfeldy area, c1930s Ref: MS316/31 Perth & Kinross Council Archive 1 Foreword While I have been a member of the Friends of Perth & Kinross Council Archive for some time I only became a Committee member last year. Thus my being asked to become the chair of the Committee at this year’s AGM was, from my perspective, rather rapid promotion! Now I have been given the great honour of writing this foreword to the Friends’ latest publication, a survey and guide to sources of information on every aspect of life in Highland Perthshire as encapsulated in the collections of the Archive. In it you will find a comprehensive overview of the huge range of collections relevant to this topic including history, genealogy, industry, settlements, estates and anything else you may be interested in. Some of the material is “official”, like local authority documents, police and Justice of the Peace records. However, there is also guidance on exploring community-based collections put together by local people who were determined their “story” would live on and be accessible to anyone who was interested. There are also many illustrations of documents of different types with informative notes beside each one. These are, of course, merely a glimpse of the rich and varied sources which exist and can be explored with the help of the staff of the Archive. A feature which we hope will be seen as innovative, and was the brainchild of the authors, is a specimen analysis of a document which is designed to show you what you can learn from it whether you are a family, house or local historian, or just interested in maximising the information that a document can provide.

Two other nearby villages, Pool of Muckhart and Yetts of Muckhart, have a pub, coffee shop and another small but well regarded primary school. Kinross (6½ miles) has a good range of services including secondary education at Kinross High School, and a variety of shops, among them a Sainsbury’s supermarket. The small town of Dollar also offers a wide selection of shops, including a supermarket, delicatessen, bank and post office, hotels, health centre, dentist, golf course, a primary school, tennis club and squash club. The town is well known for Dollar Academy, a private co-educational school with an excellent reputation, that takes day pupils and boarders.

    Perth and Kinross Remembers First World War resources in Perth and Kinross Archive This is a list of suggested resources from the Archive which might assist in any research related to the First World War. These resources are already available to browse as an online searchable database https://www.pkc.gov.uk/article/4655/World-War-One-sources Here they have been loosely grouped to assist general browsing. The headings are: people, if someone is part of a named collection; rolls of honour; albums, photographs, postcards and cartoons; women at war, if the records refer in any way to women’s war work; church; towns and villages, if places feature in the collection name and finally, organisations. This last group also includes Perth and Kinross Town council references. Some of the references feature twice if they are relevant to more than one group. The resources listed below can all be found on the Perth and Kinross Archive online catalogue. https://www.culturepk.org.uk/archive-local-family-history/archive-online-catalogue/ People Reference MS14/146/1 Collection Miscellaneous Deposits Date(s) 1918 Description Army discharge book of James Black, Army Veterinary Corps.
